Randle El and Moss both are getting 5 mil a year with 10 mil signing bonuses. Hacket got a deal where he is getting 2.25 mil a year. We also cleared a bunch of space to sign a free agent this year, we should have commited to signing one because otherwise we shot ourselves in the foot by pushing all that money back and having a bunch of empty cap space. Once Lloyd is cut, we will have 10.2 mil in space to get 3 players signed (including the 2 players from the rule of 51). We could have and should have bought Hackett because he would cost less than our receivers, and has better numbers. Not to mention we made the cap space for it.

On pace is a term that is thrown around to often, if he had played in those games whose to say that he would have gotten yards or TDs. Whos to say that Moss wasnt going to blow up in a game that he didnt play in? The term "on pace" should be stricked from the english language.
